Murcia

Cathedral de Santa Maria Mar Menor As well as golf, the region of Murcia offers you a huge amount, whether you want sightseeing or just relaxation.

The City of Murcia itself, less than 25km from La Tercia, has history dating back over 1200 years, and one of the most famous sights is the Cathedral de Santa Maria, built in the 15th century. With an abundance of shops, markets, bars and restaurants, Murcia is an ideal place for a day out, or for relaxing after a day on the golf course.

The coast is about fifteen minutes from La Tercia. The Costa Calida ("the warm coast") has everything - impressive cliffs, heavenly beaches of endless white sand, lively ports and wild coves with crystal clear water. It has more than 3,000 hours of sun a year and mild temperatures - even in winter - with a yearly average of more than 18ºC. It is the ideal place to spend some days relaxing both in winter and summer. The coastline is dotted with picturesque fishing villages, ports and unique deserted coves, while fans of water sports will discover a wealth of activities, including sailing, canoeing, water-skiing, jet-skiing, windsurfing, deep sea-diving, cave diving and other nautical activities.
